GBJJ is a wonderful academy with great culture, great training hours and programs, for all ages, and its the only academy which opens 7 days a week in Naples! I joined Global Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy a few months ago after getting references about Master Denihno from different sources. Master Denihno, apart from being incredibly passionate about teaching jiujitsu, is a world renowned jiujitsu fighter, who actively competes worldwide, with many achievements and gold medals to his name. Grateful to be able to train and learn from him; a real eminence of the sport. Look him up!

Great gym! If you want to learn bjj from a world champion this is your spot. They also have only women’s class and the female coach it’s amazing.

What an amazing school. I’ve been training for almost 8 years and this school has everything you could ask for. The one thing that sets it apart is our coach Deninho is ranked #1 in the world and still actively competes. We see him push himself and have amazing success that inspires us all. He is humble and so easy to get along with but you see him bring back all that gold and you know your friend is a monster on the mats.

I love this place! Great leaders. Great atmosphere. Clean and safe. And most of all, great training partners/friends. I've been training jiu jitsu for 6 years prior to moving to Naples and joining Global. I've had great instructors along the way. Learning from Master Deninho, a world champion, is really accelerating my growth with battle tested techniques and instruction. Most of all, I am having a ton of fun. Regardless of your experience, this is the place for you.

5 stars all around. This gym is both welcoming and challenging. Everyday we are learning new skills and helping each other improve. The environment is friendly. The instructors are all great and I’ve learned a lot from each. The fact that Master Denniho continues to prove himself in competition motivates us to work harder. 10/10 recommend.

The culture at Global is very welcoming and encouraging. All of the coaches here are knowledgeable and experienced, yet they are also patient, humble, and understanding. Being brand new to BJJ is terrifying, but the coaches and fellow practitioners at Global make going to that second, third, fourth, etc., class exciting and rewarding. We’ve also started taking our kids, and the coaches do a great job focusing on the basics to prevent injury, while maintaining a fun environment to keep the little ones coming back for more. Coach Pryscilla takes the little ones aside, helps them through each movement, and most importantly wears them out!

Great place to bring young ones! My 4yo daughter was well received when I first brought her in. All the coaches were super patient and helpful towards her and made her feel comfortable. Although she’s very social and gets along with everyone, she has made a great bond with coach Pryscilla. Coach P has been VERY patient and makes sure to explain everything throughly to her! Definitely cannot say enough great things about her!

My children have been training at Global Jiu-jitsu for 2 months and they love it. All coaches show discipline and respect towards the children while sharing their knowledge and techniques of the sport. My daughter has created a very special bond with each of the coaches since they have all motivated her to feel brave and confident, giving her the necessary tools to defend herself if she ever needed it. I can highlight that Coach Priscilla in particular has become someone that my daughter admires and sees as a role model in this combat sport for her bravery, perseverance and passion for it.
